Aluminium precision machined cast tooling plate is an aluminum alloy plate used in casting process. After special processing and treatment, it has high precision, good mechanical properties and processing performance. This kind of tooling plate is usually used to manufacture molds, fixtures, assembly tools, etc., and is widely used in mechanical processing, automobiles, aviation, electronics and other industries.
Manufacturing process of precision machined cast tooling plate:
- Casting:
The ingredients are proportioned according to a certain mass percentage, and then the required aluminum alloy precision casting plate flat ingot or round ingot is manufactured through the process of smelting, refining, standing, multi-stage degassing, slag removal, direct water cooling and semi-continuous casting.
- Heat treatment:
The cast flat ingot or round ingot is placed in the heat treatment furnace for low-temperature and long-term homogenization heat treatment to improve the material's organizational structure and performance and reduce internal stress.
- Machining:
The flat ingot or round ingot after heat treatment is mechanically processed, including turning, sawing, milling and other processes, to process into aluminum alloy precision casting plates of different specifications.
Features of aluminium precision machined cast tooling plate:
- High precision:
High dimensional accuracy, can meet the requirements of precision casting molds, and ensure the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of castings.
- Good mechanical properties:
It has high strength, hardness and wear resistance, can withstand high temperature, high pressure and impact during the casting process, and ensure the service life of the mold.
- Excellent processing performance:
Excellent machinability, fast cutting speed, high-speed cutting, significantly shortening the manufacturing cycle, and reducing the wear of cutting tools.
- High thermal conductivity:
The thermal conductivity of aluminum alloy is about 4 times that of steel. During the processing, the cooling cycle can be significantly shortened without setting up a complex cooling system.
- Good corrosion resistance:
Aluminum has good corrosion resistance and can resist oxidation and corrosion in the casting environment, ensuring the performance and life of the mold.
Application areas of precision machined cast aluminum tooling plate:
- Automobile manufacturing: used to manufacture precision casting molds such as automobile engine cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, and transmission housings.
- Aerospace: used in the manufacture of casting molds for aircraft structural parts, engine parts, etc.
- Electronic equipment: such as casting molds for chip manufacturing equipment, electronic components, etc.
- Mechanical manufacturing: used to manufacture casting molds for various mechanical parts, such as gears, shafts, boxes, etc.
